as 1975 was approaching, many witnesses sold their property.
do you know about specific cases that are willing to share their experience of doing so?.
it would be nice to believe that when 1975 came and went without a whisper..that most intelligent people would have walked away from the Witness religion.
The opposite happened, the ones who were smart enough to leave were considered weak christians.

We were studying a Watchtower article where the Society blamed its members for the debacle ... ''reading into things, becoming disheartened, slowing down in the field ministry and had little time for spiritual matters.''
I remember vividly my confusion at this. I was 14 at the time.

I knew of one family with lots of kids who wanted to sell their house and buy a trailer. Then 1975 hit and they left altogether .
matthew 19:21. jesus said to him, “if you will to be perfect, go away, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven, and come, follow me.”.
jw family tanzania - bukombe kingdom hall.

here's my list of jw no-no's as i recall: .
1. no giving or accepting valentine candy for students.
2. no going to home coming football games.
I just tossed my cookies reading all the "do nots".
i recently married my best friend of 32 years.
she is a life-long jw and once an active pioneer, i am a 'worldly' person through-and-through, always will be.
we married because it was the only way we could find a way of staying together while giving her a path back to her religion ultimately, which she does not want to (or cannot) let go of.
She will probably be disfellowshipped. If she wants to go back, then she will have the arduous challenge of being shunned and having to grovel for months, going to all the meetings and sitting at the back of the auditorium. No one will be allowed to speak to her. My heart bleeds for her already.

Rules, yes I guess this thread and many others don't come near the exposure the Lloyd Evans thread is getting. Instead of starving the narcissist, he is constantly being fed.
